Restaurant owner charged in North End shooting last year out on bail, under home confinement

BOSTON — A North End restaurant owner charged with shooting at a man outside a popular pastry shop last year is now out on bail and under home confinement.

Police say surveillance video shows Patrick Mendoza firing at the victim last summer outside Modern Pasty on Hanover Street while riding a bicycle on July 12, 2023.

Mendoza, then 54, was arrested in Falmouth several days later.

At the time, Mendoza co-owned “Monica’s Trattoria.”

Prosecutors said Mendoza served probation for an assault involving the same man back in 2019.

Mendoza was released from jail last week.
